January 23, 2009

The only moments when either Lockhorn experiences true, unconditional happiness is when the other is horribly injured. Sure, they'll get amused when pointing out a personality faux pas or enjoy a good snide comment about the other with a friend or crack a smile when they know other is unhappy; but for true bliss nothing beats seeing your spouse in agonizing physical pain. For Loretta, the sight of Leroy in traction and the prospect of months of painful rehabilitation is gift enough, the opportunity for an insensitive comment is just a delicious spite cherry on top. 2009 doesn't appear to be shaping up to be a banner year for old Leroy; not even a month in and this his second trip to the hospital. An emphatic point for Loretta.

Official Count:
Leroy - 9
Loretta - 8
Push - 6
